Green Waste – Garbage Disposal

The Kitchen really is a place of many activities, and one of the least talked about is garbage. Just like the rest of the new or updated appliances for your Green Kitchen Design have been thought thru and researched, refuse disposal needs to be reviewed and reconsidered.

Recycle Waste The Green Way

Have you thought about the products you have brought home? Part of living green means eating more veggies and whole foods to stop wasteful packaging that gets tossed into landfills. Recycling has become the normal standard worldwide, such as plastic bottles, metals and paper being seperated for re-use, and replacing an energy wasting garbage disposal should be part of any Green Kitchen update. Having somewhere to compost food waste is great way to recycle discarded leftovers. but this is not always possible for many homeowners.

InSinkErator Review

The latest in going green products is the Insinkerator Household Disposer. Located right under any kitchen sink, you can compact food waste. This is mostly water (70%) so it makes sense to grind it up in your disposal and send via your in house waste system to municipal waste water treatment plants. What is new is that most updated city treatment plants are now taking ethane, the biogas created during the processing, and using it to generate renewable power for the plant or municipality. The biosolids that are created from the treatment can be processed, packaged and then sold as fertilizer and soil run, and only account for one percent for total water consumption of any household. Insinkerator is the largest sellng and most trusted in sink disposal system, has great support, and can be purchased online or at your nearest home goods store.
